Wicked is a broadway musical that provides a humorous twist on the classic Wizard of Oz tale. It is currently on tour with Broadway Across Canada and plays throughout the year in New York city. Everything about it is absolutely incredible! The set. The costumes. The vocals. And the two female leads, Elphaba the Wicked Witch and Glinda the Good Witch, are as entertaining as they are talented! If you’ve never seen a live theatre production, Wicked would be a good one to start with!

The hottest hair trend right now is FEATHERS! First it was feather headbands and hair clips…

Now this trend has graduated to feather extensions! The best ones are made of real bird feathers (usually roosters). I have a few in my hair right now. They’re fun and edgy but blend subtly into my dark layers.

You can go with the striped, natural colored feathers or add some bright colors like pink or blue if you’re feeling a little bold. I got mine done by a vendor at Boonstock music festival but you can purchase them from most salons and your hairdresser will put them in for you. They have little metal clips that fasten onto the hair and last for up to 8 weeks!

It’s that time of year when us girls hit the beaches in our sexiest swimwear. The ultimate swimwear line, in my opinion, is Victoria’s Secret. The options are endless and affordable! I like to shop online for the largest selection but the VS store in West Edmonton Mall also carries swimwear. Some of this year’s hottest suits are…

The balconet top with slight push-up is a definite way to enhance your features. This particular bikini has an underwire which allows you to order in bra size to get the perfect fit! Any color in this suit would be flattering but animal print is always a fun, flirty option.

Mix and match styles are always in! Who said your bikini top had to match your bottoms to be cute?

Finally, the subtly sexy monokini is a must-have. It’s a great way to show off your curves and provide a little more coverage if you don’t feel comfortable sporting a two-piece.
